Wick rotation and spinors
I am quite familiar with use of Wick rotations in QFT, but one thing annoys me: let's say we perform it for treating more conveniently (ie. making converge) a functional integral containing spinors; ...

Decomposing a Tensor Product of $SU(3)$ Representations in Irreps
Can somebody explain in a simple way why, talking about representations, $3\otimes3=3\oplus6$, $3\otimes\bar{3}=1\oplus8$ and $3\otimes3\otimes3=1\oplus8\oplus8\oplus10$?
Here $3$ and $\bar{3}$ are ...

Coupling Coefficients in SO(4)
I have two equations (from two distinct authors) for the decomposition of a coupling coefficient of SO(4) (i.e. Wigner 3j-symbol for SO(4)). In the first:

composition of space expansion and movement as a gauge invariance
suppose i have a space-time where we have one point-like object* which we will call movement space probe or $\mathbf{M}_{A}$ for short, and it will be moving with constant velocity $V^A_{\mu}$ in ...

References for Understanding Minahan's N=4 SCFT review
This is about the same paper as this thread: Some questions about chapter I.1 (by Minahan) of the "Review of AdS/CFT Integrability" but it was never answered.
I have some different ...

How is multiplicity given by 2S+1?
Suppose there are two electrons in an atom with $s_1 = \frac{1}{2}, l_1 = 1$ and $s2 = \frac{1}{2}, l_2 = 1$. Hence the total $S$ (of the atom) may be +1 or 0. And total $L$ is either +2,+1 or 0.
Now ...

How to obtain deconfined theory from an s-confined N=1 susy gauge theory?
Is there a systematic procedure for obtaining a deconfined theory from an s-confining theory (as defined in hep-th/9610139 for example)?

Tensor product of pseudo-real reps
This is actually a math question but I am looking for a physicist-friendly explanation. Consider two pseudo-real reps $D_1$ and $D_2$ of simple Lie groups $G_1$ and $G_2$, respectively. Why is ...
